Diary of a Horseman: My Life and Times at Tierra Madre Horse Sanctuary

Jim Gath was a corporate executive for many years. Although he grew up around horses, including race horses, his adult career path took him in a very different direction. Jim Gath was one of the founders of USA TODAY and worked for the Turner Broadcasting System. He even ran a couple of his own marketing companies. Along the way, though, Jim realized that none of this was making him happy. He made a decision that would change his life forever. He had to get back to his roots. He realized that he was happiest when he was around horses. So, he changed his life. He got a few horses, gave riding lessons and happily hung out with his horses, until he was touched by the realization that there were many, many horses throughout this land that needed a happy, healthy home. That day was the day that Tierra Madre Horse Sanctuary was born. Through Jim's eyes and spirit displayed in his writing, you can almost live that life with him. In Jim Gath s book, Diary of a Horseman: My Life and Times at Tierra Madre Horse Sanctuary, you will meet some horses - some famous, some that no one has ever heard of - until now. You will learn what it's like to live on "Tierra Madre" - Mother Earth. His essays will make you laugh and make you cry. You might even decide to change your own life in one way or another.
